Esther Malmberg Fotografie

As a wedding photographer in Gouda, I feel privileged to be so close to love. My work revolves around one thing: seeing and preserving the real moments. As an unobtrusive witness I document your wedding day without directing it — pure, documentary, and attentive to the small gestures that later bring everything back to life. Why choose me? Because I make wedding photography that truly moves you. I work from connection: getting to know you well beforehand, radiating calm on the day itself, and paying attention to how you relate to one another. My style is warm, luminous and honest; I don't ask for staged encounters “just for the photo,” I create an environment in which you become authentic naturally. My approach is practical and affectionate. In preparation I learn your story: what matters, who is special, and which moments you absolutely want preserved. On the wedding day I stay as much in the background as possible, but I know exactly when to step closer. Small details, moved looks and joyful celebrations — everything has its place in your wedding report. On request I work with a second shooter so every perspective and spontaneous moment is documented even more thoroughly. I am certified in techniques that inform my work, such as Moment Design; these methods are especially helpful with couples and families to unlock natural interaction without forced poses. For couples I also offer engagement and pre-wedding shoots: valuable opportunities to get to know each other (and me) and to ease nerves before the big day. As a local wedding photographer in Gouda I combine personal attention with craftsmanship and international recognition — proof that my focus on emotion and honesty is seen and valued. I intentionally take on only a limited number of couples each season; that guarantees each reportage receives the time and care it deserves.
